[SauronOfMordor]

I was always taught that when lost, the best thing to do is stay where you are.

Knowing that, he had the family stay with the car. And then went in search of help in case he could find help first. Rather than considering him stupid, consider that he sacrificed himself to give his family slightly better odds of survival

that guy did what he had to do....instead of staying and watching his family die, he went out and DID something and sure, now that the rest of the family has been found, it might look foolish to leave, but he made the best choice at that time....

when we see men frantically trying to protect their wives and children, what is there to criticize?.......

God bless him and the whole family.....
